Scan Classes
Scan classes are defined in the startup file. Each /F= parameter defines a
scan class, which is numbered in order.
For example, if the .bat file reads
/F=2 /F=1:00 /F=1:30:00 /F=00:00:05,00:00:01
then these scan classes have been defined:
Scan Class 1 has a scan period of 2 seconds.
Scan Class 2 has a scan period of 60 seconds.
Scan Class 3 has a scan period of 5400 seconds (90 minutes).
Scan Class 4 has a scan period of 5 seconds, with an offset of 1
second.
Polled Tags
Polled tags are read once every scan period. To set up a polled tag, set
Location1 to match the /ID parameter, Location3=0, and
Location4=scanclass#.
For example:
